THE HANNIBAL DIRECTIVE | Day 219 | IDF kills its own | Children Of The Revolution | France aflame

George Galloway (0:00)

Welcome to the mother of all talk shows, coming to you live from China. So I better keep my voice down because it's the middle of the night here, but my goodness, there's a lot to talk about. I'm sitting in one of the very few peaceful and stable countries left in the world. Just think about that. 24 hours ago, 28, 29 hours ago I was in South Africa. Africa and Asia and the Middle East and Latin America and Europe are all in a crisis of conflict and it can all be traced to one place.

Well, a couple of them actually will be diving deep into it with your help on the mother of all talk shows. Stay tuned.

Europe is at war. Never mind all the other continents. I adumbrated though I will get to them in the course of this monologue, in the course of this show. But France is as it was when I last addressed you. Spain is still burning as it was when I last addressed you. Greece has joined the list of countries in European Union, in NATO that are subject to the flames of popular discontent, and we haven't even got to winter yet. It is an extraordinary thing to behold. German politics is now chaotically oscillating between a left and right, Sarah Wagenknecht, BSW and the AFD, Alternative for Deutschland, demanding an end to the state of war in Germany, and MOATS with 5% in the Berlin district and 11% in Germany as a whole, popular support, insisting that Germany is actually now at war with Russia. If I were a German politician, I'd be rather more careful with that kind of inflammatory talk, for reasons which we'll go into in the course of the show. Actually, to be fair, he said Russia was at war with Germany. Russia insists that it is not at war with Germany, which must leave as the alternative that Germany considers itself at war with Russia. And the evidence he cited was a 199 euro drone, mysteriously found, indeed stood upon, by a police officer or an airport security official in the airport at Leipzig. Pretty dramatic stuff, not since the fake Polish invasion of Nazi Germany being used as a pretext for an all-out German assault upon Poland and the beginning of British involvement in the Second World War. American involvement came later, much later. But the scale of the perfidy involved in these fake German claims to mobilize their whole nation, its resources such as are yet undepleted and its whole people. Although most people who have any possibility of being drafted in Hermann Mertz's war against Russia, have already made clear they won't be going or have left Germany altogether, though they need state permission, imagine in that democracy to leave Germany if they are military age. But let's concentrate for the moment on France.

Iran is trolling France perfectly. You'll recall that France played a leading role in hyping the activities and the reactions of the state towards rioting, protesting, call it what you will. It seems to depend on which country you're talking about. But from the Iranian perspective, thousands of people were rioting in Iran in defense of the monarchy long gone of the United States, now thousands of kilometers away from the Iranian coastline and were demonstrating for the Western-backed demands, human rights, NGOs, color revolution stuff all around. There's no doubt that people perished in that uprising, especially when it turned fatally violent, when police officers were on camera being murdered by protesters. It was later admitted by the United States that they had given weapons to these protesters. And moreover, some of those weapons went missing. President Trump himself declared so. He said, we issued weapons to the protesters in Iran, but many of them were stolen by the Kurds, he said. Anyway, the Iranian government has just summoned the French ambassador in Tehran, who knew there still was a French ambassador in Tehran, and warned them about the savage brutality with which those with access to social media, you won't find it on mainstream media, those with access to social media have seen the extraordinary jaw-breaking, eye-gouging, lung-choking response of the French security services to a mass uprising of millions of their people.

The proximate cause, as I discussed in the last show, was the carrying out, carrying out of the home she'd lived in for 70 years. No, that was Spain. In France, it was the parlous state of French education, colleges, schools and the parlous conditions in many parts, post-industrial parts, but also Parisian suburbs of the people of France and Spain. The carrying out of an 87-year-old woman from the house she'd lived in for 70 years, enforcing an eviction order on an 87-year-old woman for filthy lucre because the landlord wanted to make more money than he could make from an 87-year-old widow, has set the whole country alight from the south of Andalusia right up to the Catalan capital of Barcelona, such that the Spanish prime minister has called for, indeed, dissolved parliament and called for an early general election. But now, as Rubio arrives in Greece, the great people of Greece have risen up to greet him, not with a welcome, but with a not welcome here. And the shaking of the fist of the Greek working class and the workers' organizations finally getting together and confronting Greece's involvement in the war against Russia, Greece's involvement in the war against the Palestinians, Greece's involvement in the war against Iran. Well, they're all on the table, just as little Marco arrives in Greece. But enough about Europe, because real total war has now engulfed the Persian Gulf. The situation in tiny Yemen, the poorest country in the world, living next door to the richest country in the world, Saudi Arabia. It's population under siege and sanction and intermittent bloody war for almost two decades now. The existence of the puppet parallel regime based in a hotel room in Saudi Arabia being the internationally recognized government, when in fact they are mere pretenders, mere puppets of Saudi Arabia and some other Gulf Cooperation Council countries. The war is now total on Yemen. It was started when Saudi Arabia bombed Sana'a Airport, trying to bomb an Iranian passenger jet that was landing there and has spread like wildfire across the desert. There is now a state of absolute war on the strait, on the straits in the Red Sea, now controlled from the Yemen coastline, now controlled by the People's Army of Yemen, the Ansar Allah. Bab al-Mandeb is the only other access. We've got the Straits of Hormuz blocked, now we've got Bab al-Mandeb blocked. And so, there won't be any oil or gas coming your way, just in case you were getting tired of paying two pound a liter for diesel in British petrol stations. Don't expect there to be anything coming out of the Persian Gulf area anytime soon, not least because Saudi Arabia's pumping and pipeline assets have again been set ablaze in Saudi Arabia. But more seriously, there is definite, now definite traces of the so-called Mecca Pact signed by the government of Pakistan, whose army is usually used to arrest the political leadership of the day, keep them in a dungeon, and then bludgeon and murder, massacre even, the people who rise up to defend their political leaders like Imran Khan. The millions of Pakistanis regard as the legitimate ruler, legitimate leader of Pakistan. They're on the march right now towards Islamabad to yet again assert that demand.
